"Chocolate Milk: Nature's Sports Drink" Grant
Your high school athletes could be the next Michigan Chocolate Milk Mustache Celebrities!
If your high school athletes aren't powering up with low-fat chocolate milk, then this is a great opportunity to get started! Chocolate milk is ‘Nature's Sports Drink’, and provides many important nutrients needed for overall health, including calcium, potassium and vitamin D.
To find a copy of the application and to learn more about the "Chocolate Milk: Nature's Sports Drink" grant opportunity, click below:
One hundred (100) fall, winter, and spring high school sports teams in Michigan will be rewarded with cash to purchase low-fat chocolate milk for their team to replenish after practices and games for the entire season (cash value determined by size of team), up to two soft-sided wheeled cooler bags for easy milk transport, prizes, nutrition education materials to use for the promotion of Chocolate Milk: Nature's Sports Drink, and professional posters featuring the teams' chocolate milk mustache photo!
